Chapter 528
Roxanne was stunned.
Lucian seemed to have decided that she would not make a fuss onstage. He kept her lips on hers for a full three seconds before slowly moving away and straightening his posture.
Roxanne quietly clenched her fists to calm herself down and stop herself from losing control in front of the audience. Her eyelids fluttered gently before she slowly opened her eyes.
As Lucian stood by her side, a small smile appeared on his lips. However, all traces of the smile vanished into thin air the moment she looked over at him. ”
At an angle where the audience could not see her face, Roxanne allowed herself to frown slightly before getting down from the bed.
For the rest of the play, Roxanne had no idea how she managed to keep her composure.
The sudden kiss by Lucian had completely wrecked her mind, leaving it in a pile of chaos.
Only when the children led her to the edge of the stage by her hand did Roxanne manage to snap out of her daze. Recollecting herself, Roxanne gave the audience a bow.
Thunderous applause rang out from below the stage.
The audience was completely mesmerized by the fantastical ambient of the scene, and no one noticed whether the kiss was real or fake. All they knew was that the scene was undeniably beautiful.
Listening to the thunderous applause below the stage, Roxanne fluttered about, then quickly walked off the stage and returned to her seat.
“Ms. Jarvis, the two of you were absolutely stunning!” Cassandra exclaimed from behind
Roxanne had finally calmed herself down slightly. However, when she heard Cassandra’s comment, Roxanne’s mind went berserk once again,
The warmth of Lucian’s kiss still lingered on her lips.
Tossing an apologetic look at Cassandra, Roxanne excused herself. “Sorry, I’m feeling a little unwell. I think I need some fresh air. Please excuse me.”
“Do you need me to come with you?” Cassandra offered with concern.
Before she could hear what Cassandra was saying, Roxanne had already turned to leave.
The host was süll giving concluding remarks on the stage.
Archie and Benny glanced over in the direction Roxanne had just left. Looking worried, they wanted to chase after her.
They had clearly seen what had happened onstage. They knew that Lucian had not followed through with what they had rehearsed and had kissed Roxanne for real.
